More than 100 Syrians Take Over Fredericton Howard Johnson — Secrecy Rules


Canadians pay and are kept in the dark. The press isn’t allowed near the latest crowd of Syrian “refugees” ensconced at the Howard Johnson’s in Fredericton. The authorities and the multiculti organizers are keeping the press away. The Canadian taxpayers must pay but are not entitled to know the facts much less have a say. “Lisa Bamford, executive director of the Multicultural Association of Fredericton, which is in charge of the project, described the refugees asĀ ‘vulnerable people’ whose privacy must be protected. ‘They are not commodities,” she said Tuesday as dozens of men, women and children milled about the lobby of the resort on the Saint John River. ‘We
have to respect and protect their privacy.’

Bamford declined to say how many refugees were staying at the resort, where
they came from, how long they were expected to stay or how many more were
expected to arrive.”
The insolence of the immigration industry! What privacy? The Syrians chose to accept Canada’s charity. And they can’t grant an interview. “Vulnerable people”? How? they are safe in Canada. Note the average family has five children! Likely these people will impose an even heavier burden on the Canadian taxpayer. “Vulnerable people”? The only victims here are the Canadian taxpayers!

And they said Harper and crew were evasive and secretive. I guess when you’re in a constant state of SNAFU, you have to resort to this. And Elmer Fudd continues to delude himself by stating that “Canadians support this travesty” … or words to that effect.
The last time I looked, I was Canadian and I neither support nor condone what these goddamned “Liberals” are doing to this country by their thoughtless actions.

AND the BEAT goes on ……

Ahaaaaaaaa and Trudeau wants transparency ??? BULL**** I say!

Local officials are restricting journalists’ access to the site, citing
“privacy concerns“.Always a handy reference when you’re trying to stonewall.

FRENCH VILLAGE, N.B. – More than 100 Syrian refugees have arrived at a
resort hotel west of Fredericton in the past week, but the group in charge
isn’t saying how long they will stay or how many more are expected.

Local officials are restricting journalists’ access to the site, citing
privacy concerns.

Lisa Bamford, executive director of the Multicultural Association of
Fredericton, which is in charge of the project, described the refugees as
“vulnerable people” whose privacy must be protected.

“They are not commodities,” she said Tuesday as dozens of men, women and
children milled about the lobby of the resort on the Saint John River. “We
have to respect and protect their privacy.”

Bamford declined to say how many refugees were staying at the resort, where
they came from, how long they were expected to stay or how many more were
expected to arrive.

Earlier this week, a local media report said that as of last Wednesday,
dozens of Syrian refugees were arriving daily at the 14-hectare resort,
which is typically experiencing slow business at this time of year.

General manager Shane Hashemi told the Fredericton Gleaner there were 90
refugees at the resort by last weekend and up to 250 in total were expected
to arrive in the days ahead, filling the hotel to capacity.

Hashemi said extra cribs and playpens were brought in because the average
family has an average of five children in tow. He is also quoted as saying
security guards were hired to make sure the children don’t go near the river
or the highway.

The secrecy at the resort stands in contrast to the very public displays
that Canadians have witnessed in recent months as thousands of refugees have
been welcomed to 260 communities across the country.

On Dec. 11, 2015, the first group of Syrian refugees airlifted to Canada
checked in to their Toronto hotel, but not before they were met by Prime
Minister Justin Trudeau, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne and a large group of
reporters and photographers.

Immigration Minister John McCallum was at Toronto’s Pearson airport Feb. 29
as the last two government-arranged refugee flights arrived as part of the
Liberals’ $678-million settlement plan.

Some settlement agencies have said housing remains the biggest challenge.
Charities providing furniture to the refugees, meanwhile, have said they
struggle to keep up with demand.

In late February, the federal government issued a tender for 150 hotel rooms
in Fredericton area to house refugees.

As of March 1, 26,166 refugees have arrived in Canada, according to the
federal government.

The Canadian government reached its goal of bringing 25,000 Syrian refugees
to Canada by the end of February, but more are expected to arrive in the
months ahead. The government pledged to resettle a total of 25,000
government-assisted Syrians by the end of the year, and have about 10,000
more to bring.

Nancy Caron, a spokeswoman with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
Canada, said refugees’ stay in temporary accommodations can vary from days
to several weeks.

Caron said more than 60% of government-supported Syrian refugees nationally
are now living in permanent accommodations, and that will increase quickly
now that the flow of new arrivals is slowing.

An estimated 4.7 million Syrians have registered as refugees since the
outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011, but the UN refugee agency is not
seeking permanent new homes for that many.

The UN has reached out to countries to take in the refugees and only Germany
has made more official spaces formally available than Canada.
